...Dallas' Baylor University Medical Center last week, two elderly ladies emerged from a hushed, darkened room. Their eyes told the story: in the quiet room lay their brother, Sam Rayburn, 79, in a drugged sleep, beyond the help of medicine or surgery. A biopsy had disclosed that the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives was ravaged with cancer and had little time left to live...
...Worth's Texas Christian nurses a traditional, geographic hatred of Dallas' Southern Methodist, and the two state schools-Texas and Texas A. & M. -have been slugging it out since 1894.

Says Russell on defending against Chamberlain: "Make him take that fall-away shot of his-it takes him away from the backboard." Says Twyman about Baylor, one of the great stars in the history of basketball. "Play him tight at the beginning of the game. Your whole object in life after he gets the ball is to block him off, give him the outside shot." Says Syracuse's Coach Alex Hannum about Pettit: "Keep him off the offensive board...
